This book was released on 2016 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effectiveness of career counseling treatment outcomes is determined in part by the competence of career counselors themselves who must work with an increasingly expanding range of client diversity including but not limited to more clients of color. Career counselors' self-efficacy in general, and particularly regarding multicultural clientele, is a key component of career counseling effectiveness. This may be especially true for career counselors of color although little research has been conducted to assess variables predictive of self-efficacy among career counselors of color. Due to the potential that their own personal experiences of racial insults may impact treatment competency perceptions, the purpose of this study was to investigate whether self-perceived multicultural competence and self-perceived racial microaggression predicted career counseling self-efficacy among counselors of color. Minority stress theory informed the underpinnings of the present study. One hundred eighteen licensed professional counselors and licensed rehabilitation counselors, self-identified as counselors of color and practicing career counseling, completed the Career Counseling Self-Efficacy Scale, the Racial and Ethnic Microaggression Scale, the Multicultural Counseling Inventory, and a demographic questionnaire. Four hierarchical multiple regression analyses showed that stronger career counseling therapeutic process and competency self-efficacy beliefs were significantly predicted by self-perceived increases in multicultural competency skills. However, neither other forms of self-perceived multicultural competencies nor self-perceived microaggression predicted self-efficacy beliefs. Implications for multicultural theory, career counselor practice and education, and future research are discussed.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hernandez (2013) claimed that the economic landscape in the United States of American (U.S.) has changed over the last decade, increasing the number of children of low social class standing. Counselors for Social Justice (CSJ; 2011) noted that an achievement gap exists between children of low social class standing and their middle and upper social class standing peers. School counselors and school counselor-in-training (SCITs) serve as advocates to address systemic barriers impeding academic, career, and personal/social success of all students (American School Counselor Association; ASCA, 2012; CSJ, 2011; Erford, 2011). Therefore, the need to understand school counselors’ and SCITs’ multicultural self-efficacy is imperative (Holcomb-McCoy, Harris, Hines, & Johnston, 2008). ASCA and the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP, 2016; 2009) provide standards and guidelines for training school counselors to address issues of social class and classism. The purpose of this study was to understand the relationship between SCITs multicultural competency training and their self-efficacy in social class and classism training regardless of race/ethnicity and gender. This quantitative study consisted of 169 SCITs from CACREP and non-CACREP school counselor programs across the five Association of Counselor Education and Supervision (ACES) regions. The survey used in this study contained modified versions of the Multicultural Counseling Competence and Training Survey-Revised (School Counselor Version) (MCCTS-R; Holcomb-McCoy & Day-Vines, 2004); the School Counselor Self-Efficacy Scale (SCSE; Bodenhorn & Skaggs, 2005); the Balanced Inventory of Desirable Responding (BIDR; Paulhus, 1984); and a social class and classism training questionnaire and demographic questionnaire developed for the purposes of this study. Results from this study indicated program accreditation status (i.e., CACREP and non-CACREP) does not appear to influence multicultural competence or self-efficacy, but non-CACREP status did seem to increase perceived social class and classism training competence. In addition, results suggested low social class standing appeared to negatively influence perceived multicultural competency, self-efficacy, and social class and classism training more so than middle or upper social class groups. The number of multicultural competency courses and training level were consistent significant predictors in perceived multicultural competency, self-efficacy, and social class and classism training. However, region did not appear to influence perceived multicultural competency, self-efficacy, or social class and classism training. Finally, this study found a moderate, positive relationship between perceived multicultural competency and self-efficacy regarding social class and classism training. Implications from this study supported previous research (i.e., Constantine, 2001b; Constantine & Yeh, 2001; Holcomb-McCoy, 2005, 2001; Holcomb-McCoy, Gonzalez, & Johnston, 2009; Holcomb-McCoy & Myers, 1999; Larson, Suzuki, Gillespie, Potenza, Bechtel, & Toulouse, 1992) that the number of multicultural competency training courses, training level, and counseling experiences increased perceived multicultural competence and self-efficacy in social class and classism training. Therefore, SCITs should experience social class issues early and often in training through role-plays and modeling to improve the multicultural self-efficacy in social class and classism training (Cartwright, Daniels, & Zhang, 2008; Owen, Bodenhorn, & Bryant, 2010).

This book was released on 2016 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supervision is considered to be a primary method of clinical instruction (Holloway, 1992), which serves as a foundation to train supervisees and to ensure the provision of appropriate and culturally sensitive client care. While the representation of supervisees of color in the field of psychology is continuing to increase, it appears important to recognize multicultural issues (e.g., racial microaggressions) as it exists and/or emerges in cross-racial supervision. Although less is known about how racial microaggressions influence supervisees of color, the purpose of this study was to investigate how experiences of racial microaggressions affects the supervisory working alliance, their perceptions of their supervisors’ multicultural competence, and supervisee outcome variables (i.e., counseling and multicultural counseling self-efficacy) in cross-racial supervision. The results showed that perceived supervisor multicultural competence partially mediated the relationship between racial microaggressions and supervisory working alliance. Both, supervisory working alliance and perceived supervisor multicultural competence fully mediated the relationship between racial microaggressions and multicultural counseling self-efficacy. However, no support for the mediation was found in this sample for counseling self-efficacy. Limitation, implications and future directions are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to explore the experiences of people of color in counseling from the perspective of individuals who are practicing counselors and were previously clients in counseling themselves. Marbley conducted a research study in which she interviewed eight individuals representing each of the major groups of color in the United States - African American, Asian and Asian American, Hispanic/Latino, and American Indian – to obtain the stories of their experiences in their own words. These stories provide insight into the problems in and failures of counseling services provided to people of color. She quotes extensively from these interviews throughout the book, using the voices of the participants to highlight these shortcomings and personalize her discussion of the issues they have faced. A chapter is devoted to each of the groups of color, as well as one to counseling issues related to gender. These chapters provide an overview of the literature on the historical experiences of these groups in mental health and a discussion of the counselors’ experiences, and conclude with implications and recommendations for counseling and psychotherapy with these groups. Information from follow-up interviews conducted 12 years after the original ones are also provided to compare and contrast the participants’ responses to their earlier ones. Marbley concludes with a look at the need for a social justice movement within the mental health field in order to improve the experiences of and outcomes for people of color.

Book excerpt: The focus of this study was to explore the relationships among racial identity development, impostor phenomenon, and counseling self-efficacy among counseling graduate students of color. There is evidence supporting the importance of a client's racial identity. However, there is limited research exploring the impacts of a counselor's racial identity and the development of counseling self-efficacy (Tomlinson-Clarke, 2013; Holcomb-McCoy, Hines, & Johnston, 2008; Owens, Bodenhorn, & Bryant, 2010; Crockett & Hays, 2015). The following research questions were used to provide a frame of inquiry for this study and each research question pertained to counseling graduate students of color: (1) What are the relationships among racial identity attitudes, impostor phenomenon, and counseling self-efficacy?; (2) Does the impostor phenomenon predict each component of counselor self-efficacy (microskills, attending to counseling process, dealing with difficult client behaviors, cultural competence, and awareness of values)?; (3) Do elements of racial identity attitudes (assimilation, miseducation, self-hatred, anti-dominant, ethnocentricity, multiculturalist inclusive, and ethnic-racial salience) predict impostor phenomenon? (4) Do racial identity attitudes have indirect effects on counseling self-efficacy, as mediated by impostor phenomenon? A non-experimental survey design was utilized, and correlational methods were used to determine the separate and collective variations between outcome and predictor variables. The internet-based survey consisted of an informed consent, a demographic questionnaire, the Cross Ethnic-Racial Identity Scale-A (CERIS-A), Clance Impostor Phenomenon Scale (CIPS), and Counseling Self-Estimate Inventory Scale (COSE). A Pearson's correlation and a series of multiple regression analyses were performed to examine the relationships and predictive effect of racial identity attitudes and impostor phenomenon scores on the outcome of counseling self-efficacy. The results revealed that there was a relationship between racial identity attitudes and counseling self-efficacy among counseling graduate students of color. In addition, the analyses indicated that impostor phenomenon does not predict counseling self-efficacy or racial identity attitudes, but there was a correlational relationship between the counseling self-efficacy subscale (cultural competence) and impostor phenomenon scores. Finally, limitations, recommendations for future research, and implications for counselor training programs were presented.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explored several training variables that may contribute to counseling trainees' multicultural counseling self-efficacy and multicultural case conceptualization ability. Specifically, this study aimed to examine the cognitive processes that contribute to multicultural counseling competence (MCC) outcome variables. Clinical experience, multicultural knowledge, and multicultural awareness are assumed to provide the foundation for the development of these outcome variables. The role of how a counselor trainee utilizes this knowledge and awareness in working with diverse populations has not been explored. Diversity cognitive complexity (DCC) quantifies the process by which a counselor thinks about different elements of diversity in a multidimensional manner. The current study examined the role of DCC on the relationship between training variables of direct clinical experience with diverse populations, multicultural knowledge, and multicultural awareness and the two training outcomes (multicultural counseling self-efficacy and multicultural case conceptualization ability). A total of one hundred and sixty-one graduate trainees participated in the study. A series of hypotheses were tested to examine the impact of DCC on the relationship between MCC predictors (multicultural knowledge, multicultural awareness, and direct contact hours with diverse clinical populations) and two MCC outcomes: multicultural counseling self-efficacy and multicultural case conceptualization ability. Hierarchical regression analyses were utilized to test whether DCC mediated or moderated the relationship between the predictors and the outcome variables. Multicultural knowledge and clinical hours with diverse populations were significant predictors of multicultural counseling self-efficacy. Multicultural awareness was a significant predictor of multicultural case conceptualization ability. Diversity cognitive complexity was not a significantly related to any predictor or outcome variable, thus all hypotheses tested were rejected. The results of the current study support graduate programs emphasizing counselor trainees gaining multicultural knowledge and awareness as well as direct clinical experience with diverse clinical populations in an effort to foster MCC. Although diversity cognitive complexity was not significantly related to the predictor or outcome variables in this study, further research is warranted to determine the validity of the measure used to assess DCC. The findings in this study support the need for further research exploring training variables that contribute to multicultural counseling outcomes.

Book excerpt: The issues of multicultural counseling competence within intensive in-community counseling stem from the lack of research on the lived experiences of African American families receiving intensive in-community counseling services. This research project includes exploring the perceptions of counseling experiences within the African American family, examining the perceptions of multicultural counseling competence in the African American family, and providing a document that explores the African American viewpoints of the home-based counseling experience. This study incorporated phenomenological research and used the CCCI-R to rely on the participants' views of the multicultural counseling competence of home-based therapists. The themes include: (a) awareness of cultural differences; (b) comfort in the session; (c) time to understand the family needs; and (d) counseling strategies. A summary, conclusions, and recommendations for future research are included.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social justice advocacy is a necessary role for counselors. It is a part of their identity and ethical obligations to engage in advocacy with and on behalf of any individuals and communities experiencing injustice related to systemic disenfranchisement stemming from marginalized status due to race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, and social economic status among others. To promote social justice in counselors, counselor education programs are increasingly emphasizing the integration of social justice pedagogy in counselor training programs. The diversity among counselor trainees and faculty presents simultaneous experiences of both privilege and oppression and this creates a challenge in determining how students develop specific interests and commitment to social justice. The purpose of this study was to explore the nature of the relationships between the social justice training environment, social justice self-efficacy, social justice outcome expectations and social justice interest and commitment among masters counseling students. The conceptualization of the development of social justice interest and commitment was based on the social cognitive career framework. The current study examined the relationship between the linear combination of social justice training environment, social justice self-efficacy, social justice outcome expectations and social justice interest and commitment. The study also examined the amount of variation in social justice commitment explained by social justice training environment, social justice self-efficacy, social justice outcome expectations and social justice interest. Finally, the study identified the most robust predictors of social justice commitment among the 116 participants in the study. Based on the findings of the study, there was a positive significant relationship between social justice self-efficacy, social justice outcome expectations and social justice interest with social justice outcome expectations being the most robust predictor of social justice interest. Regarding social justice commitment, the results showed that there was a positive significant relationship between social justice self-efficacy, social justice outcome expectations and social justice commitment with social justice self-efficacy being the most robust predictor of social justice commitment. When social justice interest was added to the predictors, the results showed a positive significant relationship between social justice interest, social justice training environment, social justice self-efficacy, social justice outcome expectations and social justice commitment with social justice interest being the most robust predictor of social justice commitment. In addition, a positive non-significant relationship between social justice training environment and social justice interest and commitment was found. The findings of the study continue to validate the applicability of the social cognitive career theory (SCCT) in conceptualizing social justice advocacy outcomes. This provides counselor educators with the impetus to utilize the SCCT framework in the process of developing the social justice interest and commitment competencies of counselors in training.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multicultural counseling competence is the extent to which a therapist can effectively work with clients from cultural groups which differ from their own, and is expressed through skills, knowledge, and awareness (Sue, 1998; Sue, Bernier, Durran, Feinberg, Pedersen, Smith, & Vasquez-Nuttall, 1982; Sue, Arredondo, & McDavis, 1992). Color-blind racial ideology is the belief that either emphasizes sameness among all individuals, known as color-evasion color-blind racial attitudes, or emphasizes that all individuals have the same opportunity for success, known as power-evasion color-blind racial attitudes (Carr, 1997; Neville, Lilly, Duran, Lee, & Browne, 2000; Neville, Awad, Brooks, Flores, & Bluemel, 2013). A significant positive relationship has been found between therapist multicultural counseling competence and color-blind racial attitudes (Johnson & Williams, 2015). Additionally, lower levels of multicultural counseling competence are predictive of poorer ratings of empathy, while higher levels of color-blind racial attitudes are predictive of poorer ratings of empathy (e.g., Burkard & Knox, 2004; Fuertes & Brobst, 2002). This study examined if therapist color-blind racial attitudes mediate the relationship between therapist-reported multicultural counseling competence and therapist-rated empathy. Participants were licensed practitioners and masters and doctoral-level trainees under supervision. Participants completed a measure assessing multicultural counseling competence, two measures assessing color-blind racial attitudes, and a measure assessing ratings of empathy. Results found partial mediation of color-evasion color-blindness on the relationship between multicultural awareness and empathy expressed toward an African-American male client. There was no mediated effect when respondents rated their general empathy. Results and future directions are also discussed.
